Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, August 27, 2013 - This note is from a bottle open for 24 hours. Very dark, opaque black/garnet, nose is crushed berries, creosote, anise, spice; This ain't your father's California Syrah, dark, and structured, with brooding boysenberry/pomegranate fruit, good acidity, and some fairly hefty tannins. A little hard to predict, given its backward, structured nature, but I'm putting a note on my remaining bottles "do not open until after 2023" and keeping my fingers crossed this evolves into something really special. Do not open one of these now. Don't do it.
